I paid $7.95 to send a letter via USPS Priority Mail from Short Hills, New Jersey to Arlington, VA.

I mailed out a Shutterfly book to my cousin in Fl, from where I live in NY on July 1st and the last known tracking of it was 4 days later in aTeterboro, NJ. It’s a bright orange package, you can’t miss! As of today Oct. 15th,... See More it’s still missing. In mid Sept. Shutterfly was nice enough to print a second book, which I had sent direct from Shutterfly to Fl. My cousin never got that book either. After contacting Shutterfly again, they were kind enough to send out a 3rd book, which she finally got. For the first package, I sent out, I put in a missing claim with USPS and continue to get emails saying they are still working on finding my missing package. What a joke. See Less
